Updates And Photos Of Courage 21st Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Here are updates from my friend.
Day One:
Here’s some news on Courage but I’ll have to make it short as it’s been a long day.
Yesterday was quite a day picking up Courage, taking her to my vet for the distemper test and then taking her home. When I first saw her at the clinic and she was being taken out from the kennel she was squealing and showing her teeth and actually gave one of the clinic staff a hard nip as if to say the she was not feeling good and was hurting.

The Blueys Go For A Holiday….to Klang! 20th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Andy and family have gone for a holiday, so the Blueys went for their own holiday as well….to Uncle Teh’s house!
Mr Teh took the Blueys home this weekend. He had told me earlier and we thought the Blueys, being as precocious as they are, might bully his cats.
Did they?
Take a look…
With Auntie Lili and Felix Teh
Hmm…an interesting new place, isn’t it?
Mr Teh has his own cats.
Aww…Mr Teh brought the Blueys’ toys along, isn’t that nice of him?

One Simple Step to Protect Your Dog from Deadly Parvo
by Laura Simpson
November 19, 2011
11:30 pm
Written by Katie McDougall of Virginia (USA)
I was found on a cold, wet day in March in an alley of Richmond, Virginia. I was huddled in a corner, drenched and shaking. The people who found me could tell I was a puppy, “four months old maybe” they said, and they tried to tempt me with treats but I didn’t move at all. The lady noticed I had a leaf in...

Urgent – Fosterer/adopter Needed For Rescued Kitten (Jessy Lian’s) 20th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
From Jessy:
Dear Dr.Chan,
Just now while driving home (after visiting Patrick at MDDB’s adoption drive at Jaya One) on Jalan Maharajalela, under the Monorail Station Maharajalela, I spotted a black kitten sitting by the road side. I feared it might walk to the busy road & get hit by cars, so I stop at the nearest petrol station and get a paper box from them. And walk back to the station to get the kitten. Knowing that my mom will not allow me to foster the kitten, I had no choice but ...

Eat Like A Caveman…and Live Longer? 20th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Many years ago, I was a health nut. I studied various diets and came across what is known as the “Caveman Diet”, which made sense to me. Now, I hear it is still popular and it is called, more sophistically, the “Paleolithic Diet”.
Here’s something from http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/a rchive/2011/11/11/paleo-goes-mainstream-cbs-news-r eports.aspx?e_cid=20111120_SNL_MV_1

During the Paleolithic period, many thousands of years ago, people ...

Buddy’s Story – A Sharing By Connie James 20th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Below is a poignant and touching sharing by Connie James. What happened to Buddy and now, to Courage, only goes to show how very important it is for us to participate in CNRM and encourage others to do so as well. Spay-Neuter is about the most compassionate and doable method I know of to control the population of street animals and reduce the suffering on the street.
Thank you for the sharing, Connie. I am sure Buddy is now at Rainbow Bridge, smiling and playing happily with his friends, the bir...

Learning More About Courage’s Condition 20th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
I had a long chat with our vet today, to try and understand as much as I can about Courage so that we can move on sourcing useful ways to help her, even if not to recovery, then to better wellbeing.
Here’s what I learnt:
The only diagnosis made on Day One was that there was no more deep pain sensation, which indicates nerve damage. The vet used a pair of scissors to prick Courage’s tail and paws and there was absolutely no reaction from her at all. We could also feel externally that ...

Further Updates On Courage 19th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Just had a long talk on the phone with my friend who has taken Courage home. Apparently Courage was a bit snappy while at the clinic. This could be due to several factors (we are just guessing):
1. Maybe she is a bit more confident now, so she dares to snap.
2. Maybe the injury was new yesterday and the real extent of the pain and injury had not set in, because yesterday, she was still very friendly and had not shown any signs of pain. She could even waddle around using her front legs.
Coura...

Updates On Courage 19th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Hi everyone,
I’ve just come back from Melaka after a long day, from 7am until 8pm. I was invited to conduct a seminar over there. My apologies to everyone who had written emails and sent smses – I can only reply you now as I had four sessions to conduct all day and there were only lunch and tea break.
While I was in Melaka, I was also coordinating arrangements for Courage.
Last night, the acupuncturist, Dr Susanna Brida, responded to my request and said she would be happy to give acu...

Vet Weekend On Call Bonanza 19th Nov 2011, by Dr Rayya's Online Veterinary Journal
It feels so surreal to have my best mate Elin & her fiance Sverre over from Norway… Elin and I practically lived together in our last two years of vet school. She went back home when she graduated and is mainly a large animal vet. They are only here for 4 days but we are going to make the most of our wonderful reunion. Say hi to Elin:
I have been unable to blog for some time. I have been working myself to the bone.
Unfortunately my losing trend kept going and I had to put down &lsquo...

Female Cat Spayed, Kittens For Adoption (Mrs Tham’s) 18th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Mrs Tham wrote to me two days ago:
In my last mail, I told you I could not keep the 4 kittens as I have 2 mongrels in my house and it is too small to keep another 4 kittens and a cat! As it is they are now running all over the car porch, sleeping under the car wheels etc that I find very stressful whenever I neeed to go out. Moreover, I’m not a ‘cat’ person and have always been afraid of going too near them.
I’ve now got someone to take the photos for the kittens for...
